纽约皇后区豪华高层公寓藏120公斤可卡因 两名男子被联邦起诉
纽约—美国司法部纽约南区联邦检察官办公室2026年11月10日宣布，一份联邦起诉书已经解封，两名男子被控在纽约市皇后区 Long Island City 一栋豪华高层住宅楼里经营藏毒公寓，执法人员在搜查中查获约120公斤可卡因和一把装有实弹弹匣的手枪。
据起诉书，40岁的 Glen Contreras 住在新泽西州 Hasbrouck Heights，53岁的 Erick Marcano 住在纽约市布朗克斯区，两人于2026年10月29日和30日先后被捕。缉毒局（DEA）自2026年8月起调查一个向纽约市地区运送大宗可卡因的贩毒网络，Contreras 在涉案高层住宅楼里租下了一套公寓存放毒品，监控录像拍到他与另一人2026年8月把箱子搬进大楼、运上涉案公寓所在楼层。
2026年10月29日晚，执法人员搜查该公寓，查获约120公斤可卡因和一把带实弹弹匣的手枪；同一天，Contreras 在新泽西州住处被捕，执法人员在其住处搜出约4万美元现金和一台点钞机。搜查期间，Marcano 带着能打开该公寓房门的门禁卡来到同一楼层，据起诉书，其目的显然是拆除监控摄像头。
纽约南区联邦检察官 Jamie McDonald 表示，这类藏毒窝点是毒品流向社区的源头，此次行动截下了一大批本会流入街面的毒品。DEA 纽约执法处负责人 Farhana Islam 表示，把约120公斤可卡因和枪支藏进住宅高楼，显示这宗被指控的贩毒行动规模惊人。
两人各被控一项共谋分销并持有、意图分销5公斤以上可卡因罪名，法定强制最低刑为10年监禁、最高可判终身监禁。Contreras 还被控一项在贩毒犯罪中持有枪支罪名，该罪名强制最低刑5年、须与任何其他刑期连续执行。案件由联邦地区法官 Paul G. Gardephe 审理，助理联邦检察官 Nicholas Pavlis 负责检控。检方强调，起诉书中的指控仅为指控，两名被告在被依法证明有罪之前均属无罪。

Two Men Charged Over Queens Stash Apartment Holding About 120 Kilograms of Cocaine
NEW YORK — The U.S. Attorney's Office for the Southern District of New York announced on November 10, 2026, that a federal indictment has been unsealed charging two men with operating a stash apartment in a luxury high-rise in Long Island City, Queens, where agents seized approximately 120 kilograms of cocaine and a handgun with a loaded magazine.
According to the indictment, Glen Contreras, 40, of Hasbrouck Heights, New Jersey, and Erick Marcano, 53, of the Bronx, were arrested on October 29 and 30, 2026. The Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) had been investigating a network moving bulk loads of cocaine into the New York City area since August 2026. Contreras leased an apartment in the high-rise to store the organization's cocaine, and surveillance footage captured him and another individual moving boxes into the building and up to the apartment's floor in August 2026.
On the night of October 29, 2026, agents searched the apartment and recovered approximately 120 kilograms of cocaine and a handgun with a loaded magazine. Contreras was arrested the same day at his New Jersey residence, where agents recovered approximately $40,000 in cash and a currency counter. During the search, Marcano arrived on the same floor carrying a key fob that opened the apartment's door, in an apparent attempt to remove surveillance cameras, according to the indictment.
U.S. Attorney Jamie McDonald said stash houses like this one supply the drugs that devastate communities, and that the operation kept a massive amount of poison from reaching the streets. Farhana Islam, the DEA's Special Agent in Charge in New York, said the seizure from a residential high-rise exposed the alarming scale of the alleged trafficking operation.
Each man is charged with one count of conspiring to distribute and possess with intent to distribute five kilograms and more of cocaine, which carries a mandatory minimum sentence of 10 years in prison and a maximum of life. Contreras is also charged with possessing a firearm in furtherance of the drug trafficking crime, which carries an additional mandatory minimum of five years to run consecutively. The case is assigned to U.S. District Judge Paul G. Gardephe and is being prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorney Nicholas Pavlis. The charges in the indictment are merely accusations, and the defendants are presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty.
